Abstract

An F-connector for a coaxial cable has a substantially flush, coplanar face comprising a first insulator, locking ring, and connector body with a swaged leading edge. Within the connector body a connecting lead is attached to and spans between the first insulator and a second insulator. The F-connector may be constructed by a process that permits front-loading of the connecting lead and insulators, or by a process that permits back-loading of the connecting lead and insulators, or by a process that permits partial back-loading and partial front-loading of the connecting lead and insulators.
